Larry,

I'm going to be giving it a shot also. Although I find it hard to
believe that it can handle
"normal" background noise in the home. The traing set-up is really
lacking.
It would seem that to train a particular command it must be typed out
exactly
as in VR. What happened to "Browse"? Anyway I'll let you know  how it
goes.

Thanks,

Carl K
